Palo Alto, CA - Friday, November 13th, 2015
Ooma, Inc. (NYSE: OOMA), a leading smart business and home communications platform, was named today as one of the fastest growing companies in North America according to Deloitte’s Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America.
Ooma grew its annual revenue by 130 percent between Fiscal Year 2011 and Fiscal Year 2014, using its unique hybrid SaaS platform to capitalize on the trend of both small business and home communications moving to the cloud.

“Cloud communications is our core connected service and is the primary growth driver for our business today, said Ooma’s Chief Executive Officer Eric Stang. “Our unique hybrid SaaS platform creates significant competitive advantage in both our communications and other connected services and has shown consistent revenue growth on a year-over-year basis.”
As small business and home communications continue to shift to the cloud, Ooma provides an affordable and innovative hybrid SaaS solution specifically tailored to meet small business and consumer needs – without the complexity or limitations of traditional phone systems. The company’s flagship consumer device, the Ooma Telo, replaces the standard landline with a revolutionary home phone system loaded with features including free calling in the U.S., unparalleled PureVoiceTM HD audio quality, call screening, free mobile app calling from anywhere in the world, and integration with the Nest Learning ThermostatTM.
